Gustave Klimt was born in Vienna, Austria in 1862. He is viewed as one of the most influential and cutting- edge artists of his time with memorable pieces such as The Kiss, The Portrait of Adele Bloch Bauer, and the Three Ages of Women, as well as his provocative drawings. With his abstract multimedia uses of paint, jewels, and gold leafing, Klimt has created some of the most iconic and controversial pieces in the art community. At the beginning of his career, Klimt stuck to his teachings and…

Post-Impressionist period, where I started to be interested in Art history in the very beginning. Therefore, I would love to start again with Gustav Klimt, who lived around the same period, but had a distinctively different style in Austria. After talking to Professor Houghteling, I was inspired by the perspective offered by her. Since several well-known works of Gustav Klimt have been discussed widely in recent years, it might be a better choice to start from the series of painting of Maria Ria…

Matthew McGee Epistemology Final Paper Q1 Goodman 's “grue” example and Hempel’s Raven Paradox are very similar. The Raven Paradox posits that for any given object x, when we assert that it is neither black, nor a raven, we are confirming the hypothesis that “all non-black things are non-ravens” (pg, 70). From this we can also make the logically equivalent statement that “all ravens are black.” This is an unexpected conclusion according to Goodman. Furthermore, our statement about the…

integration is now popular and very helpful in mathematics. In this paper we explore the background of mathematicians Henri Lebesgue, Peter Gustav Lejeune-Dirichlet and Bernhard Riemann. We discover some of their contributions to mathematics and how they all contributed to this famous concept of Riemann integration. Index Terms— Bernhard Riemann, Henri Lebesgue, Peter Gustav Lejeune-Dirichlet, Riemann integration I. INTRODUCTION Even though the idea of calculus was already in the air, the…

We all have seen the cartoon show called, “The Simpsons.” We all know the character named Homer Simpson, who works at the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant. His job place always dealing with radiation around him and his co-workers. But we don’t know deep details about radiation. Let’s start by talking about the thermal radiation. Thermal radiation is energy where it transfers by the emission of electromagnetic waves. The waves hold energy away from releasing object. For a normal temperature, the…
